Hi Kyle, I believe GOES South has been out of commission for some time now: http://www.unidata.ucar.edu/blogs/news/entry/goes_12_to_be_decommissioned (I realize it is still an an option in the IDV which is confusing.) For satellite data covering the South America region, you may wish to try GOES East.
